to your system by boot CDs and bootable media.
The condition for this BIOS feature is that you have assigned at
least the supervisor password.

Highlight the Boot from Removable Media eld and press the Enter key.
Select the entry All (if you want everyone to be allowed to boot) or Supervisor Only (if you
only want the supervisor to be authorised to do this) and press the Enter key.
If you do not want to change any other settings you can exit the BIOS Setup.
Fr om the Exit menu, choose the option Exit Saving Changes.
Press the Enter key and select Yes.
